Gently discovered gold mine, ten
miles from Prescott, Arizona, on the
Lassayampa river, is richer by far
than anything ever discovered in the
world. The ore averages 81 900 per
ton and thousands Of tons are in
sight. Two men with common NOR
tar, pounded out $500 in less than an
hour. The gold clings to the rock in
the purest scales. A man with a
knife can scale off handful in a few
minutes. There is every indica ton
that the ledge contains fabulous
wealth. This river has produced
millions in years past in placer min

found which yielded 100000 in a
few weeks. People are flocking there

A Northern drummer showed me
a remarkable piece OF mechanism to-
day, which certainly is the browning
work OF ingenuity. 1t is a novelty
in watches. 1t is worn on the little
finger Of the left hand, and looks like
the ordinary seal ring. 1t isn't
though. A spring just below the set
ting was touched and the stone flew
open like the cover of watch and
revealed miniature dial with tiny
gold hands. | raised it to my ear and
the little timepiece was ticking away
with the regularity of its bigger
brethren. From the top of that
stone setting projected a very small
beveled stem tor winding. The
works are reduced to the smallest
possible compass, and it is said that
they'll last as long as those in the
ordinary watch. They are worth
S45 in Northern cities, but they are
hardly well on the market as yet.
This watch is certainly a miracle

A HORRIBLE CRIME.

MIR. Stephen Bailey, engineer of "a
steam saw mill in Berkeley county,
s. c., quarreled with his wife and
knocked her in the head with an axe,
from the effects of which she died in
few minutes. He hid the body un-
til night, when he placed it in a
wheel barrow and carted it to the en-
CINE room. He stripped a part of the
clothing from the body and threw it
into the fiery furnace. In his excite
ment he neglected to hide the bloody
garments. The next morning the
woman was missed. The clothes
were discovered in the engine room,
and on further examination her
charred remains were found in the
furnace. Suspicion pointed to Bal
ley and he was arrested. lie ut once
made full confession, He was hand
cuffed and tied to a post to prevent
him from escaping. He borrowed a
knife from little son of the consta-
BILE to clean out his pipe, ana while
no one vas watching him he attemp-
ted to commit suicide by cutting his
throat. His manacles and the dull
ness OF the knife, however. prevented
his immediate death, but his throat
was horribly gashed and he was
found in an unconscious condition.
Bailey received surgical attention
and soon recovered Sufficient strength
to be carried to the county jail at
Mount Pleasant. The murderer is
about sixty-fve years of age, and his
wife was few years his Junior, They
had lived together many years and
had SIX children. Bailey is suffering
intensely with his wounds, which are
likely to prove fatal.

She brought her 'yearlinge in a

went out and wheeled the carriage
and baby into an adjoining store.
Though ne was not aware of it the

A Maine physician says that one
day he saw big crane standing on a
log floating near the shore of the
Kennebec river. The crane had cap

drop into the stream so that it float

grab it again and repeat the perform

for nearly half an hour, and then a

the bug. This was just what the

A FEE OF Sc. 900. 900.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal
Thomas IL. Williams, was native
of Wayne county, Ky, who went to
California in 1S49. The elder Will
liams settled in Virginia City, where
he was, after few years, elected to
the office OF Prosecuting Attorney.
Mr.. Williams was retained as the
General Attorney for large mining
company, whose headquarters were
at Virginia City. This company be-
came heavily involved, and was on
the verge of bankruptcy. Mr.. vii.
liams learned its condition, and. as
he had a claim of 81 800 against the
company, for legal services, he
brought suit and attached its prop
erty His attachment made him a
preferred creditor, and when the
property Of the company, consisting
solely OF its mines, was sold, Mr.. Will
liams purchased it, bidding no more
than the amount of his judgment.
He secured perfect title to the
property, but made no attempt to
develop or dispose of it.
Years passed away, and Mr.. Will
Hams had been elected to the office
of Attorney General of California.
One day he was approached by a
representative of Flood, Mackay &
O'Brien and asked if he was not the
owner of certain mining property
near Virginia City.
81 am, said Mr.. Williams.
"Do you wish to sell it ?" inquired
the agent.
81 do not" was the reply.
"Will you take 100000 for it,"
u will not, returned Mr.. Will
liams, who knew the difference be-
tween cowboy and a cart-wheel :"
Il will give you s25O,OOO," said
the agent.
'The property is not for sale, - said
Mr. Williams,
The agent left, but the next day
he come back and offered Mr.. Will
liams 100000 for the property. The
offer was declined.
The negotiations were taken up
by member OF the firm of Flood,
Mackay 4 O'Brien. A a result,
Mr.. Williams put his property into
the firm, taking in return a big block
of stock. That stock began to ay
like kite. About the time it was
at its highest Mr.. Williams sent for
his partners and told them he was
going to sell his shares.
I'll you want them" said he, you
can take them at regular market
quotations" They wanted them,
and they took them. When the stock
was transferred, the firm Of Flood,
Mackay & O'Brien gave Mr.. Williams
check for s6,000,000. He bad
waited good while to collect his
attorneys fee from the insolyent min
ing company, but when it did come
it was a crusher.
1t was by very considerable odds
the largest fee ever realized by an
attorney in the history of this coun.
try.
